John McCain and 200 Other War Mongers Banned from Entering Russia

(Anti Media) Washington, D.C. —
Russian state media sources have announced that the Russian government has
banned at least 60 American politicians and public figures from entering the
country.

The report cited
by RT, included another 140 non-U.S. persons seen as openly hostile toward
Russia,

According to Izvestia, the new list includes mostly
politicians, civil servants and other public figures known for their openly
anti-Russian activities. About 60 people on the list are from the United
States. Among these are Deputy National Security Advisor Caroline Atkinson,
presidential advisers Daniel Pfeiffer and Benjamin Rhodes, Senate Democratic
Leader Harry Reid, House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner, Chairman of
the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations Robert Menendes and Senators John
McCain, Daniel Coats and Mary Landrieu.

The notoriously
bloodthirstyand irate McCain responded defiantly to the travel ban, telling
Politicothat “I couldn’t be more proud of being sanctioned by Vladimir
Putin for standing up for freedom and human rights for the Russian people and
against Putin’s deadly aggression in Ukraine. I will never stop my efforts to
support democracy, free speech, and the rule of law in Russia.”

At face value, John McCain’s response is fairly
admirable — if only it were true.
